Method of processing audio-video data

Abstract

An audio-video processing method is adapted to an audio-video device and a storage device for processing an index-based audio-video file. The method for processing audio-video data includes a write procedure, a play procedure, and / or a repair procedure. In the write procedure, audio-video data is captured by the audio-video device first, and the audio-video data includes a plurality of continuous samples; a header is written according to the audio-video data; a predetermined number of samples are captured as a data chunk; a prefix index corresponding to the data chunk and the data chunk are written in sequence repeatedly according to the audio-video data; and a file index is written finally. In the play procedure, after the header is read, corresponding prefix index and data chunk are repeatedly read and played. Moreover, in the repair procedure, incompletely written file index and data chunk are repaired through all the prefix indexes.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a method for processing audio-video data, and more particularly, to a method for writing, real-time playing, and repairing audio-video data and audio-video files.[0003]2. Related Art[0004]With the development of technology nowadays, audio-video multimedia has been widely used for either entertainment or utility. Video or audio data is indispensable either in movie, advertisement, environment security monitoring system or in medical surgery camera system. The audio-video media is developed to have various file formats, among which the most commonly seen package format is an index-based file format. The package format of the index-based audio-video file mostly has three portions, namely a header, a body, and an index. The portion of the header records basic information of the file, the portion of the body records actual content of the audio-video data, and the portion of the index records ...

Benefits of technology

[0013]The write procedure, the play procedure, and the repair procedure provided in the present invention may be individually executed, or the plurality of procedures can be executed integrally. For example, the write procedure and the play pro

Problems solved by technology

Thus, the index-based file cannot be played before being completely written and packaged as a complete file.

Being limited by such a structure, the file of index-based format has the problem of failing to play before the file is completely written.

In other words, the problem of failing to record and play at the same time and realize the record-and-play function exists.

In addition, if the index-based audio-video file is damaged by an unexpected interrupt during the process of forming the file, the whole audio-video file cannot be used.

If the audio-video data and index located at the end of the file have not been written or not completely written, the file cannot be played.

Such a kind of incomplete file cannot be repaired, so that the previously captured audio-video data is all in vain.
